One of the most classic French aperitifs is a pour of gentiane liqueur on the rocks with a squeeze of lemon. Salers is the oldest gentian liqueur of the Massif Central, birthplace to this style of product. It distinguishes itself with a pure, firm, rustic earthy profile. Unlike its larger rivals, Salers is less sweet and does not add artificial yellow color, revealing a beautiful natural straw color. Enjoy with ice and lemon, lemonade, in the Blond Negroni with gin and Dolin blanc, or as an earthy base note in a variety of cocktails. With the addition of a pinch of salt, Salers takes on herbal, tequila-like flavors. Full details

The Oststeiermark region boasts a variety of peaches, including the Roter Ellerstadter, Weinberg and Haven. The liqueur combines juices from the seasonal harvest of these peaches with an eau-de-vie produced from the same fruit. The result captures not just the fragrant aromas of fresh peaches but also the natural acidity and a touch of the peach bitter. Delicious with soda water, wheat beer, or sparkling wine; stunning in mixed drinks with bourbon, rye or rum. Full details
